Many on this messageboard just have no understanding of our program, its coaches or players. Pretty sad.

Yes Tbone, don't understand The Ulla's comment either? Will be interesting to see where Fore ends up now. My $ is on CSU Bakersfield. In any case, he seems like a good dude, hope he goes somewhere he can have a good final college season.
 
The plot thickens here! My new guess (and that is all it is) is that UT decided to pull the offer to Khwan rather than Kwan making the decision. I could be wrong, but this one is starting to sound really "fishy." Am wondering if new information emerged as Khwan was finalizing his transfer.... Once we find out where Khwan actually goes, and once we find out who UT manages to recruit in place of Kwan, this one could become more clear. I will wait until later to comment further on this transfer, but if Khwan lands in a way that is similar to Buck (at a lower-level school much farther from home), then maybe some on this board may stop blaming our coaches for the transfer decision.

After realizing that Knoxville really wasn't that close to Alabama, his pre-homesickness helped him to see that playing 5-minutes a game in orange might not help his pro prospects all that much. :)

Fore, Solly, and likely others fled from a ship that has been taking on too much water. Buckingham was considering jumping off the side when he fell overboard. I find it odd that so many on this forum gobble up the BS excuses and refuse to acknowledge the obvious.

Solly quit the team to go home , Buck committed multiple team violations including one while the team was in the middle of a 5 game winning streak and Fore didn't evidently "get it in writing" before making a commitment. Not BS excuses, just the facts.

Solly quit the team because he was mismanaged. Buckingham was looking

Spin it any way you want, thank you for making my point :D

Solly had his chance and could not play at a D1 level. That is why he is back in France. Or, did I miss where other programs went after him after he left here? Buck was looking? Even if that were the case, how did that turn out for him? He is now nearly 3,000 miles away sitting out a year for a non major team that just went 12-18. Guess he should have looked harder. Meanwhile, it is late May and Khwan does not even have a team. Maybe all 3 of these guys weren't quite as great as some of you think, and maybe it is not so crazy to think that we will be a better team this year without them.
 
mismanaged? lol.
he was handed a starting job. he played a lot early on. and not that it was all his fault but we lost just about every game he played in. he definitely had his chances. and could have earned more as the season went on.

you're awfully forgiving of a guy who in my opinion did the unforgivable. you don't bail on your teammates midseason. if every kid unhappy with playing time left midseason, we'd be playing 5 on 5 with no bench.
 
Wish Kwan all the best .....maybe the grass isn't greener on the other side of the fence? ....hope he finds some place that works well for him and his graduate and basketball plans...............

Tennessee just had one of their nba early entries change course and come back to school. Maybe they were planning on him going and they no longer had the spot for Kwan?

Hope it works out for him. Everything I’ve seen and read says he’s a class act. If we could make it work, I would love for him to come back.

Where there is a will, there is a way. We may not have anymore schollies but we must think outside the box.....bring him back if he wants to return.

no way.
I like Khwan a lot and he's a very good player, but he left and we filled the spot. we committed to someone else. no way do you even consider breaking that commitment. that would set an awful precedent.
 
There was talk of him leaving Richmond so he could go pro in Europe. Why wouldn't he just do that instead of shopping himself around to a bunch of D1 programs at the last minute? Seems to me at this juncture, his choice of P5 programs would be pretty limited.

No way, he already left the team. Recipe for taking a wrecking ball to team chemistry.
